Small Group Questions

1. In the sermon, we talked about distorted images of God (distant force, cosmic therapist, angry tyrant, permissive grandfather). Which one do you think people struggle with most in today’s culture? Which one have you personally leaned toward at different seasons of life?  

2. Jason said, “God is not who you think He is. He is who the Bible says He is.” Why is it so easy for people to create God in their own image instead of allowing Scripture to shape their understanding of Him?  

3. The sermon ended with the idea that “The God who is beyond us came near to us.” How does Jesus help us better understand the character and heart of God?
